Research Fellow, University of Southampton, Southampton General Hospital
Dr Danielle Schoenaker is an epidemiologist with an interest in preconception health and care. Her research has examined how nutrition and lifestyle before and between pregnancies may influence women’s risks of developing pregnancy complications, and how these may in turn influence growth across childhood and adolescence in the next generation.
